WHEREAS, Audelia Creek Elementary School in Dallas was
awarded "Recognized" status by the Texas Education Agency in 2008;
and
WHEREAS, To ensure that all students in Texas benefit from
the highest standards of education, the TEA instituted an
accountability rating system for the state's public schools and
districts; a campus gains "Recognized" status if 75 percent of its
students pass each of the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills
subject area tests, and in 2008, only 34 percent of all schools
earned this notable distinction; and
WHEREAS, One of 41 elementary schools in the Richardson
Independent School District, Audelia Creek Elementary offers early
childhood education as well as instruction through the sixth grade;
known as the "Home of the Stallions," the school serves
approximately 600 students, and it is skillfully led by principal
Mike Savage and assistant principal Tonja Frazier; the mission of
Audelia Creek Elementary is to provide a world-class education to
all students; and
WHEREAS, The teachers and students of Audelia Creek
Elementary have demonstrated outstanding dedication and
perseverance in their pursuit of academic excellence, and they may
indeed take justifiable pride in the accolade their school has
received from the State of Texas; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas
Legislature hereby honor Audelia Creek Elementary School on its
achievement of a "Recognized" rating from the Texas Education
Agency in 2008 and extend to its students, teachers, and staff
sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
